Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assessing a client for reproductive health problems. What would be the priority assessments? (Select all that apply.)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Bleeding. Bleeding is a priority assessment because it can indicate serious reproductive health issues such as ectopic pregnancy or cervical cancer. Pain and masses are important assessments, but bleeding takes precedence due to its potential urgency. Sexual orientation is not a priority assessment for reproductive health problems as it does not directly impact the client's immediate physical health.

Question 2 of 5

Identify the CORRECT strategy to achieve external fertilization.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct strategy for external fertilization is to have eggs and sperm shed simultaneously into water. This allows the gametes to meet and fertilize outside of the organism's body. This method is effective in aquatic environments where the chances of gametes coming into contact are increased. Choice A is incorrect as it describes internal fertilization. Choice B is irrelevant to the process of external fertilization. Choice D is incorrect as the frequency of egg and sperm release does not determine the success of external fertilization.

Question 3 of 5

Regarding histology of mammary gland

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Correct Answer: B - Nipple is lubricated by sebaceous gland Rationale: 1. Sebaceous glands produce sebum, which lubricates the skin. 2. The nipple is a part of the skin, and sebaceous glands present in the areola secrete sebum to lubricate the nipple. 3. This lubrication helps protect the nipple during breastfeeding. Summary of other choices: A: Lactiferous duct is mainly lined by simple cuboidal epithelium - Incorrect. The lactiferous duct is lined by stratified cuboidal and columnar epithelium. C: Terminal ductules are seen in lactating mammary gland - Incorrect. Terminal ductules are present in non-lactating mammary glands. D: Interlobular stroma increase in pregnancy - Incorrect. Interlobular stroma does not significantly increase in pregnancy; rather, the alveoli and ducts enlarge during this period.

Question 4 of 5

A client is having a hysterosalpingogram. What action by the nurse is most important?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assist the client in sitting up after the procedure. This is important to prevent complications like vasovagal response or fainting due to sudden positional changes. Sitting up slowly helps stabilize blood pressure and prevent dizziness. B: Providing a pad for dye stains is not the most important action as it is a minor concern compared to client safety post-procedure. C: Taking antibiotics has no direct relevance to the hysterosalpingogram procedure, so it is not the most important action. D: Informing the client about potential shoulder pain is helpful, but ensuring immediate safety by assisting the client in sitting up takes precedence.

Question 5 of 5

Which structure contains lysosomal-like enzymes?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: acrosome. Lysosomal-like enzymes are found in the acrosome of sperm cells, where they help in breaking down the outer layers of the egg during fertilization. Sertoli cells (A) provide nourishment and support for developing sperm cells. The sperm head (B) contains genetic material but not lysosomal-like enzymes. The sperm tail (D) is responsible for movement and does not contain lysosomal-like enzymes. Therefore, the acrosome (C) is the structure that specifically houses these enzymes for the fertilization process.
